Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004039748A1] Disclosed is a modified powder injection molding method which is advantageously used for producing highly porous, near net-shaped parts having complex geometries from initial metallic and/or ceramic powders. The placeholders that are used are non-toxic and can be quickly and almost entirely removed from the parts. Said placeholders make it possible to specifically adjust the pore sizes of the parts within a range of 20 ñm to 2 mm and the porosities thereof within a range of 10 to 85 percent by volume, the distribution of pores being very homogeneous. The duration of the entire process is determined to a considerable degree by the removal of the binder and the placeholders. The total time required from the step of preliminary surface-active binder removal is no more than 14 to 20 hours, even if preliminary thermal binder removal is added (for metal powders and ceramic powders < 20 ñm). Said total time includes removing the placeholder, removing the remaining binder, and sintering as well as heating, cooling, and holding times. The inventive method is therefore inexpensive and can be carried out with moderate effort.
